Hepatitis-C Virus (HCV) Quantitative PCR Cost INR:6000 Symptoms Diagnosis
Hepatitis-C Virus (HCV) is a viral infection that causes liver inflammation, sometimes leading to serious liver damage. HCV spreads through contaminated blood. Until recently, hepatitis C treatment required weekly injections and oral medications that many HCV-infected people couldn’t take because of other health problems or unacceptable side effects. That’s changing. Today, chronic HCV is usually curable with oral medications taken every day for two to six months. Still, about half of people with HCV don’t know they’re infected, mainly because they have no symptoms, which can take decades to appear. For that reason, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends a one-time screening blood test for everyone at increased risk of the infection.
HCV Symptoms
Many people with HCV have no symptoms and don’t know they’re infected. When signs and symptoms are present, they may include:
- Fatigue
- Joint pain
- Muscle aches
- Feeling of fullness in the upper right side of your abdomen
- Decreased appetite
- Nausea
- Swelling in your abdomen
- Spider-like blood vessels on your skin
- Yellowing of your skin and the whites of your eyes (jaundice)
HCV Diagnosis
The HCV Quantitative PCR test is used to diagnose HCV infection. It measures the amount of virus in your blood. DNA Labs India provides HCV Quantitative PCR test at an affordable cost of INR 6000. The test requires a blood sample, which is then sent to the lab for analysis. The results are usually available within a few days.
If the HCV Quantitative PCR test is positive, your doctor may recommend additional tests to determine the extent of liver damage and the best course of treatment. These tests may include:
- Liver function tests
- HCV genotyping
- Liver biopsy
If you think you may be at risk for HCV infection, talk to your doctor about getting tested.
